Telford is to much for Tavanello Final score 21-12 125-165-197 could go either way but since its a home match I went with the Bucks. Plus I'm a homer.        Discussion Topic: Bucks vs. Iowa Hank Kornblut added to this discussion on December 16, 2014 Burak is hurt and Evans hasn't been 100% all season. Iowa doesn't have much at 157. On the other hand, we have no idea what is going on at 149 with the Bucks and Grothus is tough. If there's one conclusion from watching Hunter on Sunday it's that he should have been at Cleve. State on Saturday shaking off the rust. Hindsight, of course.        Discussion Topic: Bucks vs. Iowa Michael Rodriguez added to this discussion on December 16, 2014 I've got it 18-14 Iowa.        Discussion Topic: Bucks vs. Iowa Jack Muni added to this discussion on December 16, 2014 Gilman has beaten Nate in FS the last two times they have met. Gilman should have the edge. But this is folkstyle, so let's hope Nate can beat him. I also think the big question will be how Hunter & Bo wrestle coming off big layoffs?        Discussion Topic: Bucks vs. Iowa Jamie Teel added to this discussion on December 16, 2014 I have it 18-15 Iowa. Before the season I thought Iowa was the toughest match up for Tosu. I still believe that, even though with Pfarr wrestling strong Minnesota is obviously a tough match up as well.        Discussion Topic: Bucks vs. Iowa Hank Kornblut added to this discussion on December 16, 2014 18-15 tOSU if the lineup's ready to go.        Discussion Topic: Bucks vs. Iowa Michael Rodriguez added to this discussion on December 16, 2014 Hank...I assume the difference between our picks in Hunter Stieber winning and Logan Stieber getting the fall rather than the tech? The rumors and whispers I'm hearing about Hunter Stieber's injury make it tough to pick him over a top ten opponent, particularly an Iowa grinder. For the record, I think a healthy Hunter Stieber wins easily. I think the post on the other thread that likened Hunter's situation to the situations of Matt Mcdonough, Rodger Kish or even Mike Pucillo may be more accurate then we think. I really hope I'm wrong, because he's an amazing talent and has the skills to win it all his last two years.        Discussion Topic: Bucks vs. Iowa Mark Niemann added to this discussion on December 16, 2014 1) MINN 2a) Iowa 2b) Ohio State I'll be there on the 4th, and hope to have our JH & HS at the event. I'd love nothing more than to send them packing AGAIN!!!!! Also, I'm 99% positive that Iowa goes Midlands, @ Rutgers (01/02), @ Ohio State (01/04). That is a long road trip.        Discussion Topic: Bucks vs. Iowa Patrick Campbell added to this discussion on December 16, 2014 Quote from Michael Rodriguez's post: "Hank...I assume the difference between our picks in Hunter Stieber winning and Logan Stieber getting the fall rather than the tech?

Bad enough for him to apply for medical RS this year?        Discussion Topic: Bucks vs. Iowa Michael Rodriguez added to this discussion on December 16, 2014 Yes, and again, I hope I'm wrong. He seems like a great kid and he's as talented as they come, but as Mcdonough, Kish and Pucillo showed us, if your body isn't right, you can't beat top level guys, regardless of how much better than them you are.        Discussion Topic: Bucks vs. Iowa Alex Creech added to this discussion on December 16, 2014 I don't get the impression from Ryan's comments that Hunter is injured enough to miss the season. http://www.ohiowrestlingnews.com/news_article/show/457554?referrer_id=1025229        Discussion Topic: Bucks vs. Iowa Michael Rodriguez added to this discussion on December 16, 2014 Alex...given those comments, I would venture to say my info is wrong. However, Coach Brands never led on that Mcdonough was as hurt as he was. I don't remember about Kish. And with Pucillo, local people knew there was something wrong, but didn't know exactly what it was until after the season. Anyway, my point is it's not Coach Ryan's job to be totally upfront here. That being said, I think a quote like, "There are also things he needs to 'own' on his end. This is not an overnight fix either. It's called sacrifice", are pretty harsh if the performance was about injury. My guess is my info is wrong.        Discussion Topic: Bucks vs. Iowa Jack Muni added to this discussion on December 16, 2014 Quote from Michael Rodriguez's post: "Alex...given those comments, I would venture to say my info is wrong.

I also thought the quote "We were not aware(of the forfeit). Brian Smith is a great coach with class", stated Ryan. "His athlete didn't make weight. We could have weighed another athlete in and moved Logan up, but we didn't." was weird, because he says Smith has "class", yet I take the remark about not being aware of the forfeit as classless?? Is there some "unwritten law" that says you should tell the opposing team of a pending forfeit? If Logan could have moved up to 149 that would have been a very interesting match. I would never bet against Logan in that situation.        Discussion Topic: Bucks vs. Iowa Jason Russell added to this discussion on December 17, 2014 Quote from Michael Rodriguez's post: "Hank...I assume the difference between our picks in Hunter Stieber winning and Logan Stieber getting the fall rather than the tech?

Rod, I am assuming you were not at the Ohio State Missouri dual, but based on what I witnessed there, I would say you are absolutely right. Hope we are both wrong. On a side note, I got a new phone and don't have your number anymore, message it to me sometime! We will have to hit up a holiday tournament or something.        Discussion Topic: Bucks vs. Iowa Jason Russell added to this discussion on December 17, 2014 BTW, Burak from Iowa is out from what i am told.        ► Add to the Discussion Page 1, 2  Next
